Blue Bonnet Rocks

Just finished breakfast at the Blue Bonnet Cafe in Marble Falls.  We figured that we were at the right place when we pulled up and saw the parking lot was full as well as a line out the door.

In fairly short order we made it through the line and set down to find out that we had in fact picked a great place for breakfast.

While in line, Tim went to try and relieve some of his back pressure.  The rest of us were a bit worried after we heard Tim holler that he needed a spoon.  For the full story re: an alternate use of those small collectible spoons - ask Kirt.  One of several stories shared by the Compadres on this trip that just can't be done justice anything short of live story telling.

We all ordered the eggs with chicken fried steak.  Greg and I ordered the Texas Toast while Kirt and Tim ordered biscuit.  Now when I say Texas Toast - this is the toast that all other Texas Toast aspire to be.  It was obviously baked there at the cafe and was at least 3/4 of an inch thick and easily 1/2 again as large as a normal slice of bread.  It was light and just fell apart as you eat it.  Kirt and Tim reported the biscuits looked heavy but were just the opposite.  Chicken fried steak was the perfect size for breakfast and was excellent.  Easily one of the best I've had.

Pretty much everyone agreed that it was probably the second best meal we have had on the trip even if it wasn't BBQ.

We are now headed down the road to the Hard Eight and have agreed to strike Coopers from our list for this trip.  After all, we need a reason for a second trip.  Not sure that it will be a BBQ Tour, but there is always the possibility it could be.

Talking about second trips, I think there is a high probability we will make another trip in about year or so.  Just not sure right now what it will be.  Several options being considered are a Chicken Fried Tour, Seafood Tour, Cajun Tour, & Tex Mex Tour.  Who knows, we may have stumbled on to a recurring event for the Compadres.
